As spotted by 9to5mac, the website has recently been updated to feature Apple as one of the 213 members. This update fuels recent rumors that Apple is going to add wireless charging in the next iPhone.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size:18px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">While wireless charging is nothing new, Apple has been very cautious about this feature. The Apple Watch already works with a magnetic cable that charges your device wirelessly. But the iPhone has never had such a feature.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size:18px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">When wireless charging first became popular, it was either slow or your phone battery would become hot. If this feature isn&rsquo;t implemented properly, it could damage batteries over the long haul. In addition to that technical challenge, companies were competing to set the standard. The technology is now ready for prime time, and Apple seems to be ready to move ahead.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size:18px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo from KGI Securities has already said that the next iPhone should feature wireless charging in addition to the good old Lightning port.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size:18px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">In September, Apple could introduce, not one, not two but three different iPhone models. In addition to the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus (or whatever they call them), there should be a higher-end &ldquo;pro&rdquo; model.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size:18px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">It&rsquo;s unclear if all iPhones or just the top model will feature wireless charging. Similarly, nobody knows for sure if Apple is going to put the charger in the box or still ship the devices with a Lightning cable.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size:18px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">There are many, many companies in the Wireless Power Consortium, including Samsung, LG, Huawei, HTC and Qualcomm. So today&rsquo;s announcement doesn&rsquo;t mean much about Apple&rsquo;s plans. And yet, it&rsquo;s hard to dismiss it when you combine it with the current rumors &mdash; it&rsquo;s a lot of smoke.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size:18px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Now, if only somebody could tell Apple that the Lightning port is kinda useful. If you blink, Apple could use this opportunity to remove that one last port on the iPhone.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<span style=\"font-size:8px;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Source:-&nbsp;https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2017\/02\/13\/the-next-iphone-could-feature-wireless-charging\/<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/technology\/mobile\/the-next-iphone-could-feature-wireless-charging.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The next iPhone could feature wireless charging The next iPhone could feature wireless charging:- Apple is now a member of the Wireless Power Consortium.
